Psalms 122

1 I was glad/happy when people said to me, “We should go to the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem]!”

तिनीहरूले मलाई, “हामी परमप्रभुको मन्‍दिरमा जाऔं” भन्दा म खुसी हुन्थें ।

2 And now we are here, standing inside the gates/city of [APO] Jerusalem.

ए यरूशलेम, हाम्रा खुट्टाहरू तेरा ढोकाहरूभित्र खडा छन् ।

3 Jerusalem is a city that has been rebuilt, with the result that people can gather together in it.

ए यरूशलेम, होसियार भएर योजना गरी बनाइएको सहर हो ।

4 We [people of the] tribes of Israel who belong to Yahweh can now go up there as Yahweh commanded that we should do, and we can thank him.

कुलहरू, परमप्रभुका कुलहरू, इस्राएलको साक्षीको रूपमा परमप्रभुको नाउँमा धन्यवाद दिनलाई यरूशलेममा जान्छन् ।

5 There the kings of Israel who were descendants of [King] David sit on their thrones and decide cases [fairly when the people have disputes].

त्यहाँ न्यायका सिंहासनहरू, दाऊदको घरानाको सिंहासनहरू खडा गरिएका थिए ।

6 Pray that there will be peace in Jerusalem; I desire that those who love Jerusalem will (prosper/live peacefully).

यरूशलेमको शन्तिको निम्ति प्रार्थना गर । “तँलाई प्रेम गर्नेहरूलाई शान्ति मिलोस् ।

7 I desire that there will be peace inside the walls of the city and that [people who are] inside the palaces will be safe.

तेरो रक्षा गर्ने पर्खालहरूभित्र शान्ति रहोस् र तिनीहरूले तेरा किल्लाहरूभित्र शान्ति पाऊन् ।”

8 For the sake of my relatives and friends, I say, “My desire is that that inside Jerusalem [people will live] peacefully.”

मेरा दाजुभाइ र मित्रहरूका खातिर, म भन्‍नेछु, “तँभित्र शान्ति होस् ।”

9 And because I love the temple of Yahweh our God, I pray that things will go well for the people who live [in Jerusalem].

परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरको मन्‍दिरको खातिर, म तेरो भलाइ खोज्‍नेछु ।
